Sequoia Posted May 26, 2009 Posted May 26, 2009 Hi I am 33 yrs old and recently met this guy , my neighbour, who is a very nice person to talk to etc. I've known him for quite a while but recently we have been talking very often on the phone and in person for quite a long time. I did not realise that he was falling for me until last night he confessed to me. I told him I did not think it was a good idea since he is so young and I did not want to steal his youth away from him. Now he is very upset with me and is acting as though he would get crazy or something. I am slightly attracted to him ( his qualities) but I could never do that to someone who has their whole life ahead of them. I do not think I am wrong for dismissing the idea. Am I?
OverThinker Posted May 26, 2009 Posted May 26, 2009 Well how old is he? What do you mean he has his whole life infront of him your only 33 same age as me and I still plan on living a long time and hopfully having at least one more child. You say he is your neighbor so I am thinking old enough to own a house? Sounds like you might have other issues, you didn't say how old he is but when I was 25 I dated a 31 year old and would have been pretty upset if she dismissed me as a child. Age is just a number (to an extent), Do you think he is to childish for a mature relationship or you just don't want to date a younger man? Simply yes I think you are wrong for dissmissing it unless he is like 18 or something?
BentSpine Posted May 26, 2009 Posted May 26, 2009 I do not think I am wrong for dismissing the idea. Am I? Well you could possibly miss out on something great. If you don't dig deeper you'll never know.
Midas Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 It sounds like he's half your age. "Whole life in front of him..." If that's the case, maybe dismissing the idea of dating him would be the right choice.
SoulSearch_CO Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 Hard to say - you didn't say how old he is. Is he legal?
